Lalaloopsy dolls are rag dolls that came to life when their very last stitch was sewn! They are a group of dolls that reflect the fabric from which they are sewn. Each doll has their own appearance, personality, pet, and career that they love to do all day long while playing with their friends.

2010 Lalaloopsy is a line of plastic rag dolls from MGA Entertainment. Originally released in 2010 as Bitty Buttons, the brand name was changed to Lalaloopsy shortly after launch. They began to grow in popularity during the holiday season in 2010.

Doll play activates parts of the brain that allows children to develop empathy and social processing skills. Either alone or with others, spending more time in imaginary worlds will enable your children to gain skills needed later in life.

Since ancient times, dolls have played a central role in magic and religious rituals and have been used as representations of deities. Dolls have also traditionally been toys for children. Dolls are also collected by adults, for their nostalgic value, beauty, historical importance or financial value.

Lalaloopsy were once rag dolls who magically came to life when their very last stitch was sewn. With your love and little bit of imagination, you'll see why Lalaloopsy dolls are sew magical . . . and sew cute!

The release, which will reintroduce 25 Lalaloopsy dolls with a focus on DIY crafting and traditional doll play, marks the brand's 10th anniversary. Lalaloopsy is back following a petition signed by thousands of parents and fans.

As experts would tell you, there is no age limit for dolls. It may seem unusual in this day and age, but several 12-year-olds still play with dolls.

Whether alone, or with friends, playing with dolls is instrumental for a child's development. It provides opportunities for emotional expression, cognitive skill development, fine motor skills and social interactions.

Here are five benefits that playing with dolls has on children.

• Solidifies Social Skills. Many forms of play help children gain essential life skills when they are young.
• Helps Teach Responsibility.
• Teaches Children How to Process Emotions.
• Helps to Develop A Child's Imagination.

Dolls can help children to develop their social and cognitive skills, learn empathy, build self-confidence, and gain an understanding of their own feelings and those of others. Dolls also allow children to express their own ideas and to think outside the box.

Playing with dolls gives lots of opportunities to learn and practice different types of words for colours, size, position, actions, and feelings. Different types of words are the building blocks your toddler uses together to make longer sentences.
